Maker Bio:
The company was founded in 1953 by three brothers, Juán, José and Vicente Lladró, in the village of Almàssera, a tiny farming community near the city of Valencia. Starting with items such as vases and jugs, it wasn't until 1956 that they started producing the sculptures for which they are now most famous. Enthusiasm for the items produced by the Lladró brothers saw their small workshop expand several times until eventually they moved to Tavernes Blanques in 1958.
